Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Josh Beckett, facing surgery for a torn labrum in his left hip that caused him to miss most of the last three months of the season, retired at 34, ending a 14-year career that included two World Series titles. He threw a no-hitter in May but landed on the disabled list for the third time this season in early August with a hip impingement.
